Harmony Presbyterian Church Cemetery - Perry Twp.

Contributed by Dee Turek Bryner

From the History of Fayette Co., Pa. by Ellis we see that there was a Snyder Farm on which was built the Old Log Church belonging to the Cumberland Presbyterians, and known by the name "Harmony." The present church stands near the same spot.

The census of the cemetery was taken in 1962 by Walter Hoffman and in 1970 by Irene P. Lignian. These records have been combined using the 1970 as the basis - any discrepancies will be bracketed.

Directions: From the Westmoreland County/Fayette County line on Rt 51 north of Perryopolis, go south on Rt 51 0.3 miles and turn right on Harmony Church Road. The cemetery is immediately on the left below the road.
